Description

Bringing Practice into the classroom is nothing new. We bring panels of experts to discuss cybersecurity, cases which delve into current managerial problems, or data provided by an organization for students to analyze. But the recent pandemic provided a greenfield for us to recalibrate what it means to bring Practice into the classroom. This is likely more imperative in the IS Introductory Course in business schools as our discipline should be leading the way with technology driven change. This paper brings together the well-established flipped classroom pedagogy with the latest techniques employed in Practice, to introduce a novel course delivery framework for IS Intro classes. This framework not only motivates a more innovative and practice-influenced classroom, it employs the Agile method of work, providing educators a way toward rapid implementation in their individual classes, multi-section courses, or across courses department wide. In addition to the model, we outline our planned research to understand the student learning effectiveness in our 2 different delivery models.
